I have installed the IPFS-desktop package via snap install ipfs-desktop on an Ubuntu 18.04.4 PC, installed a 2TB drive at device /dev/sbd1 and then Ext4 formatted a single 2TB partition mounted at /media/username/HulaCLoud. I want this drive to be the IPFS repo.

I tried to look in ~/.config/IPFS Desktop/ but it didn’t exist and neither did ~/.config/Electron/config.json.

Eventually I tracked down the config to two hidden files in the SNAP .ipfs-desktop folder – IPFS_PATH which points to /home/username/snap/ipfs-desktop/17/.ipfs and IPFS_EXEC which points to /snap/ipfs-desktop/17/resources/app.asar.unpacked/node_modules/go-ipfs-dep/go-ipfs/ipfs

Which version of IPFS Desktop app are you talking about? I am on Ubuntu and installed Revision 1b58b62 with Snap. The only icon I can see which has an “Advanced” link is “Status”, and under that Advanced link there is no “Move Repository Location”, only Gateway, API, Addresses and Public Key.
